Bracha was a holocaust survivor. She was only 6 in Romania when Romanian authorities came to take her away to Russia. Most Jews who went to Russia were taken to extermination or work camps, but she and her family were hidden by a Russian family. She was very ill at times having almost nothing to eat. When she was 11 the Germans were defeated and the Jews were free. Bracha had it rough, but she survived.

My personal thoughts on the Holocaustby: Evelyn Clissold
I, like most people, absolutely HATE the holocaust. My teacher told me that hate is a strong word, and I should only use it in extreme situations. I truly believe the Holocaust deserves the word hate. Still, there are good things in the Holocaust such as survivors. These are my thoughts.
